1.Work
your way in

This
is likely to be the only piece that you and your partner will have to buy
together and wear every day. As such it’s good to come together and select a
preliminary list of options before hitting the retailers’. The following are
important questions to answer:

·Will the wedding band metal match the
engagement ring?

·Will the wedding band match his watch
metal?

·Do you want unique, over-the-top or simple?

·Will both bands have diamonds or any other
precious stone of choice?

·Will you wear matching bands?

These
will help you to zero in on your options once you start looking around

2.Consider
getting sets

This
won’t work if you want to surprise your partner with the engagement ring.
However, you can (much earlier or through a proxy) find out what your partner
likes in terms of metals, precious stones, cuts and designs.

If
your partner will wear both rings on the same hand, consider how the wedding
band complements the engagement ring. Unique and fancy-cut ring are well
complemented by simple wedding bands, while classic solitaire rings may work
well with diamond pave bands for added glitz.

Think
about how the rings will touch if on the same finger. Find shadow or contour
bands which are made to interlock with the engagement ring. If they will be
worn separately, you have much greater choice regarding the intricacy of style.
Talk to your jewelry designer and see if you can get all three rings sorted at
once – this will be one less thing to think about once you start planning the
wedding itself.

3.Start
early

This
is especially true if you want something fancy, or you’re on a very restricted
budget. There are literally thousands of options when it comes to diamond rings
for women and men. At the least, allow two or three months to search through
both bricks-and-mortar and online stores. If you must have custom-set bands, you’ll
need even longer. Consider also that extras such as engraving and valuation can
take as long as four weeks.

4.Go
wild and creative

If
you prefer whiter metals and your partner likes yellow or rose gold for
instance, there’s no law stating you have to wear matching bands. If you have
very different tastes but still want matching bands, consider getting braided
bands which have a little of both metals. The key is to ensure that you are
both comfortable with your final choice: you will, after all, wear them for
many years to come. You can choose matching inscriptions to make your rings
come together if you choose different styles.

Bonus
tip: think lifestyle

Don’t
just buy a pricey wedding band that will sit uncomfortably on your hand, and
hence you may have to remove it (making you more likely to lose it). Choose
something that will seamlessly fit into your life such as comfort-fit bands
which are slimmer and have rounded edges best for people who use their hands a
lot e.g. in sports. Avoid having too many gemstones which are likely to come
loose if overly agitated.
